Karin, YOU'RE WINNER!!!  This brought back so many memories.  I remember having the shareware version of Spiderman Cartoon Maker, since I wasn't old enought to order the full game, and I played on that thing for hours.  I would always make the characters dance and put "asplosions" everywhere for no reason.  Good times.....

The hardest game ever?  MUSHIHIMESAMA for the PS2.  No contest:

Mushihimesama (Ultra Mode Final Stage):

or its sequel, Mushihimesama Futari (Ultra Mode Final Stage):



Old-school bullet hell shooters still outrank any other genre in sheer difficulty.  It's just pure insanity! 

I could not have said it better myself conorkirk.  The project's status is exactly  +  !

Seriously though, conorkirk and I have established contact outside the forums and are discussing pre-development mumbo jumbo.  The project is going to be a slow start but we will hopefully pick up momentum sometime soon... unfortunately we cannot devote 99.99% of our time to the project and have normal "lives" outside of here :P

The map editor looks very different from anything I've used in the past but I am reading up on it and willing to learn it.  As for the modeling in Max, I have a very primitive low-poly Big Rig that I plan to flesh out and add detail to soon, but in the meantime here's a look at it (at least it's something!):

 

Get off to this:



MEGA

69. lol... 69! 

He clearly has a 7.1 sound setup so that he can feel the amazing BASS that BROTRR has.

Of course, how could I be so blind (or deaf...?)!  But surely pumping BASS of that magnitude is so full of WINNER that his speakers would 'asplode.

What a discovery!  However he does lose some points for not wearing his headphones to experience the revolutionary sound that BROTTR has.

I just discovered something too... EJ, the WINNER Atari E.T. in your sig has a pen15! 

It appears to me, depending on the SCO file of each individual Big Rig, that the models are low poly (faces), around 1000-1500ish.  I will make a model as close to these specs as possible in accordance to "Keepin' it WINNER."  I also discovered the UV Maps for each rig (512x512 BMPs) within the Data file, and so I believe I will begin by modeling my favorite rig, MEGAONE... but this time with a trailer!  I will try to start this week, for I am too busy enjoying what little break I have left and working on next semester's project for college.

On a side note, there appears to be a lot of residual files pertaining to other playable Big Rigs (such as the ones discussed in the Mod topic) but some of them are very... interesting.  Apparently Sunrise W12 has a driver named Durik and the motorcycles (Midnight Club Racer Supercharged! perhaps?) have faces, too:

 

   

We are tapping into the pure  that makes BROTTR here... must be careful not to delve too far for fear of 'asplodin.

I'll keep it low poly to start, conorkirk.  And, instead of flooding the forums just send me PMs (check your inbox btw) or we can e-mail eachother as well.  Anyone with ideas or contributions to the project are encouraged to contact everyone involved in this project.  Feel free to e-mail me as well; that is my REAL address in my profile... fyi.

LOL.  Monkey Butt-Sex! 

I concur... I like how it took you 5 years despite the fact that BROTTR was released in less time than that :P

(By the way, Portal would be a much better puzzle FPS with Big Rigs)

Driver1: will you make a truck model? You can make it in max, but I will need to figure out how to get it into md3 format :) keep in mind, there will be unwrapping involved ;) there are two files for a model: tris.md3 and skin.jpg :D

Can do, and will get started asap!  Any polygon count threshold I should worry about?  I mean, I could use just standard primitives for ultimate WINNERness, but I'd like to try a "real" model first :P.  I'm good at working to a budget in poly count.  And by what I mean, here are 2 examples of my work:

The "Professional" way (1500 Poly Female Model)

 

or the "WINNER" way (Craptastic Robot-Thingy)

 

animatino BROTTR

That typo made my day, lol... animatino ftw!

(I know I posted this game earlier in the Other Winner Games post, but I believe it deserves its own post!)
